Story

Carolyn's project began in 2018 after two visits to the island. It is supporting the communities of Urbaite and Santa Teresa with education and welfare in this poor island community.
The children need uniform and school stationery to go to school.
The Rafaela Herrera School needs to maintain its internet connection, stationery, toys for the preschool classes, musical instruments, stationery for teachers, support for the school football teams. The school has no budget.
In April Nicaragua entered a state of political unrest which has eliminated tourism and brought further deprivation to the island.
